Diverging clear, Breyer.
Title:  Diverging clear, Breyer.
Description:  Breyer is the control point to enter the AGS and begin double track south into Meridian. THe right hand track is!the NB main which the diverging approach signal protects. the Southbound main is center, SB trains come down this track and there is a signal to allow restrictive movement if a NB move is needed on that track (dwarf). The far left is for both NS and Dunn roadbuilders to switch rock cars. Dunn roadbuilders can ONLY switch cars just up the switch point derail out of picture. NS will back rock cars down into the spur.
